The answer

It is not permissible to break the fast in Ramadan for exams, as the hardship involved is usually tolerable and does not constitute a legitimate excuse. However, if the student experiences extreme hardship with which she cannot continue fasting while performing her task, then she may break her fast. If one breaks the fast due to harm caused by fasting, such as an illness like anemia, then the days one missed must be made up.
